Top treatments to rescue winter tresses

If winter/central heating/daily drizzle have played havoc with your crowning glory, resuscitate stressed tresses with these rehabilitative treatments

Leonor Greyl's {L'Huile de Leonor Greyl} is so much more than just a pre-shampoo treatment. A syrupy elixir, it smells like honey and works wonderfully as a quick, pre-wash conditioner - but is amazing applied through thick or unruly hair as an intensive, overnight hydrator (as long as you're washing your hair the next morning). Like fabric softener for locks, this turns straw into silk - and can even be applied (very sparingly) to the ends of dry hair, to seal moisture in and enhance definition. Just be sparing - it is oil after all, and you don't want to look like you work in a (heavenly scented) chip shop...

Shampoo can be incredibly drying - especially if your hair is fragile. Pureologys's Strength Cure {Shampoo} and {Conditioner} are sulphate- (and paraben-) free, so they're respectful to hair and scalp equilibrium; cleansing without stripping, and enhancing manageability with a cocktail of botanical extracts, antioxidants and ceramides. And, for an extra weekly treat, slather on BLEACH London's gorgeous {Reincarnation Mask} - either post-shower for 5-10 minutes, or pre-workout (the exercise-induced heat helps the oils to penetrate). You'll soon be glossy-locked (and super smug).

If even a whisper of moisture makes strands behave more like antennae, combat the impact of drizz with these frizz-fighting heroes. Briogeo's {Rosarco} range is great for taming porous locks that take offence at moisture - sealing each fibre to help prevent flyaways - while Virtue's fantastic {Un-Frizz Cream} helps *you* to regain some control over mops that throw strops at a hint of humidity. And, for every other frizz-uation, reach for OUAI Haircare's smoothing and gloss-giving {Sheets} - anti-static tissues in a cigarette-esque case that looks cute in your see-through Céline.

If you hair is fine but frazzled, make Sachajuan's {Leave In Conditioner} your new best friend. Totally weightless but deeply replenishing, this gorgeous mist simultaneously smooths, nourishes and provides protection from the elements. And it's perfect for lazy girls/hair cleansing-phobics, who love ANYTHING that streamlines an otherwise laboriously boring process (why waste time washing when you could be re-watching every episode of SATC?). Just spray and get glossy in moments.

Partied so hard that your hair-washing ritual's gone by the wayside? When you've no time to 'go' (let alone time to 'wash and'), you need to do something to help you look kempt when you've just scraped yourself off your mattress. If you passed out and woke up with hair like a bird's nest then battle your tangles (we love RAINCRY's {Detangling Paddle Brush}) and spritz liberally with the brilliant {Lazy Girl Dry Shampoo} spray. Heavenly-scented with no chalky residue, this leaves your locks looking (and smelling!) as fresh as a daisy. Just twist and secure with Jen Atkin's {Bun Cuff} for an effortless up-do with next-to-no effort. Simples!
